Tb leoond number of "Belter Fruit" ii out, and if anything 1b bet ter than the first number,. Tbe front cover ia a reproduction of Dr. Lura way'a famous "Two-year-olda," Id colors, the two-year-old apple tree having half-dozen 4 tier, rod, ?:s Sp'tzeobergg. The number la Oiled with good timely ai tides and fully manintains the promise made i'l the first number of an excellent publioa tlon. Tbe high prices paid for the best grade of Hood River apples In a year of plenty, demonstrates that tbe world Is ready to pay a good price for a su perlor article, regardless of the supply of tbe common grades. It settles tbe future of the apple business in Hood River valley ax nothing else could Those who have good Spitzenbergt and Newtowns this year will make big profits, and even other standurd var ietles will be profitable. It is a oon vinolng argument that the present prloes of orchard land are not high but rather an lndioation of an ad vance all along tbe line. TEN-MILE SWIM NEXT SATURDAY Considerable interest is manifested in the swimming match next Hutur day between John Leland Henderson and young llyrnes. The manager oi tbe Oaks at Portland bas put up: purse of 100, to go to the Portland Swimming Baths, and the winner will be accorded tbe honors.

EARTHpKrTAT VALPARAISO Valparaiso, Chile, August 20. -At 7:15 last Thursday evening Valparaiso experienced an earthquake or great severity and during tbe night b'2 shocks were felt. Most of the buildings of the city are eithet burned or damaged. Tbe loss will be enormous, probably reach ing I'm 000, 000. Five hundred per sous killed Is considered to be a fair estimate of the casualties. Vina del Mar, three miles from Valparaiso, and having a population of over 10,000; Quirihu, 225 miles to tbe southward, with a population oi 25,000; Hauta Llmacho, 15 miles to toe nortnwest, witn a population ol u,ouu; uuiuota, 'lb miles to tbe north west, with a population of 10,000, and villages all around were destroyed, Most ot the damage was due to tire, which started immediately aftei the first shook. The whole population is sleeping in tbe hills, tbe parks or ' be stnets. Pood Is very soaroe. Milk oosts two Chilean dollars a liter, and It Ih almost Impossible to obtain meat, even at high prices. Tbe railroads are all destroyed. The nights are very cold and windy and the people sleeping in the open are suffering greatly. Tbe captain of a steamship which has arrived from Ban Francisco, says tbe situation here is worse than that following tbe disaster at Ban FranoU co. Only now oan the extent of the earthquake damaue be appreciated The majority ot the modern linuses of this city bave unsaie foundations. Special oorps was organized to raise all tottering structures. It la uutiafe to walk on most of the streets on ao count of tbe falling debris. Advloea from Valparaiso indicate tbe dead at 2,000. On the night of tbe August 1(1, all was rendered bale ful by tbe flashing of lightning, the driving rain, wires and cables snap plog as the result of tbe constant earthquakes wbioh followed each other in rapid suoeeHsion.

Let Loose, Portland The Register is always Interested hi the suooess of our worthy townsmen and we should be plesed to see Hon J. M. Shelley, who aspires to be eel lector of customs at Portlaud, land the plum. We undoistaud tbe pres sure brought to bear In liehalf of other candidates, more especially in Multno mah county, but it would seem that as tbe metropolis already bas the col lector ot internal revenue. U. S. mar shal, district attorney, governor, sup. erlntendeut of public Instruction and state treasurer, Portlaud ought to lie willing to allow the outsiders an tic caslonal chance. So far as Seuatoi Pulton ia oonoerned we kuow he is veiy friendly to Mi. Shelley's candi dacy but even a man In Mr. Fulton ' fiosltion cannot always do as he would ike. At any rate, Portland should let loose on this matter and let Wil lamette valley bave a peep in.

Hand's grove, surrounding the Wau-Uuiu-Uuin hotel, Ihursday after noon. Annum 10. There was a good turnout, nearly every one who at one time lived Hi Iowa being present, There are probably more here from that state than from any other am the showing made was very good. i,'i'lie grounds were fixed up in nice shape. A grand stand for speakers was erected, and there were pleasant seats provided, while a faucet at tacbed to the water pipe that supplies tbe hotel with cool spring water, made the place very desirable for a picnic ground. Apples were fastened to some of the oaks, and they bad the appearance of growing reui live ap Dies. 'ftie meeting was called to order by President Laraway, shortly before noon, who made a short address of welcome, followe l by M. P. Isenberg, Then followed a poem by Mrs. Hattie Harrison Miner, written for the occa si n, which was a gem, and road by the author iu a very impressive man ner. After a recitation by Mis Em ma Noble, an adjournment was taken for lunch. After enjoying the flue picnic lunches which were brought, tbe program was continued. Alter lunch Mr. iioyulon was called to tbe plutforin as the oldest llawkeye in tbe valley, Ins residence in lue state dating b.ck to 1811. Mrs. Lara way was called next as having lived tbe louuett in the state, a period ol over 50 years. A recitation Ly Mist Leach followed. W. (J.

I'he Iowa picnic is one of the avunU or tbe summer season, since its in auguratlou last year, and the list ot Iowa residents of the valley who have registered bas exceeded 3(10. This is probably the largest number who live iu the valley who have lived lu any other one state. Xhu idea of au an uual gathering where old times can be talked over, it a good one, and it wtu veiy union eujoyed liy every one pies eut. It was proposed to bave the baud for the occasion, but at the last minute it was found the boys could not all get away, so that pait ot the program had to be dispensed with, ill ore was no lack of enjoyment, how ever. It was principally a social af fair, and old neighbors and friends iiad new things to talk about, swapped stories ot old piouoer days iu Iowa, many of them happenings among the scenes ot childhood. There were those among them who let tjlowa lu the owl grant wagon mauy years ago, tor the lar west, and not a few of tliuui re called events in the now large citiu when they were piouoer villages. Ibe dale and place of holding the next annual gathering have not been decided, but will be llxed to suit next year a conditions, llie growth of (lit society and the assuruuee of a good time, will guarantee a good atteud a ucu.

While uoikintf in llie brush he beaid the hii)in of Home mil nml, and on looking into a cluuip of brushes, discovered a couple of young cougars. Not (Mi intf to molest them, he kept on with his work. In a few minutes us he was looking ItuouKU his nii'veyinK iiistruiuuiit, he discovered the mother of the cubs crawliuK aloiiK in bis diiootion. He did not wuit for a foriiuil inlroiliio tiou, but made for a linckuictiick tree that was close by and iu less tiino thuu it takes to tell it he win up tu the first limb, about CO feet from the ground. Tho oougai stopped alter rcachinx the tree slid sat I here look ing up ut blui. Tho other men iu the patty who were some distance away discovered bim going up the tree, and then caught sight of the cougar at tbe bottom, i'liey then scattered, some of them running two union he tore looking around. They allot yards explained that they went slier n gun.

After the lupte of several hours, the men came back cautiously with rilles and clubs, but as soon as the cougar discovered the reinforcements, she made off through the brush, followed by the cubs. Mr. Hall-Lewts says that they saw mauy bear tracks, and several bear, hut did uot get very ueal to them. The party were surveying the route of the Glacier irrigating ditch.
